This effort may well emerge as the finest hour in the paper's distinguished 150-year history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In an unprecedented commitment, the \u003ci\u003eTimes\u003c\/i\u003e assigned one of its most skilled reporters, Richard Bernstein, to turn the newspaper's brilliant and incisive reporting into a riveting narrative of September 11th. Following the lives of heroes, victims, and terrorists, Bernstein weaves a complex tale of a multitude of lives colliding in conflagration on that fateful morning. He takes us inside the Al Qaeda organization and the lives of the terrorists, from their indoctrination into radical Islam to the harrowing moments aboard the aircraft as they raced toward their terrible destiny. We meet cops and firefighters, and become intimate with some of the Trade Center workers who were lost on that day. We follow the lives of the rest of America--ordinary citizens and national leaders alike--in the hours and days after the attack. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Finally, Bernstein chronicles the nation's astonishing response in the aftermath. No account of this singular moment in American history will be as sharp, readable, and authoritative as \u003ci\u003eOut of the Blue\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Bernstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805074104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805074109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 6.38w x 0.85d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/07\/2003 pg. 28","brand":"Richard Bernstein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992457052415,"sku":"9780805074109","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5d23e6bd-8593-41f5-848e-5fcff822166a.jpg?v=1683319053","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/out-of-the-blue-richard-bernstein-9780805074109","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
